French flower painter&,nbsp,Pierre-Joseph
Redouté&,nbsp,(1759–1840) devoted himself exclusively to
capturing the diversity of flowering plants in watercolor paintings
which were then published as copper engravings, with careful
botanical descriptions. The darling of wealthy Parisian patrons
including Napoleon’s wife Josephine, he was dubbed “the Raphael of
flowers,” and is regarded to this day as&,nbsp,a master of
botanical illustration.This elegant catalogue brings
together&,nbsp,all engravings from Redouté’s illustrations
of&,nbsp,Roses&,nbsp,and&,nbsp,Choix des plus belles
fleurs et quelques branches des plus beaux
fruits&,nbsp,(Selection of the Most Beautiful Blooms and
Branches with the Finest Fruits)&,nbsp,and the most astounding
images from&,nbsp,The Lilies. Offering a vibrant overview of
Redouté’s admixture of accuracy and beauty, it is also a privileged
glimpse into the&,nbsp,magnificent gardens and greenhouses of a
bygone Paris.
